Remove Hegseth and Hold Trump Accountable for Betraying the Military Remove Pete Hegseth from his position and take action to hold this administration accountable for its treatment of the military and veterans. On July 1, Air Force Major Jason Watson stood on the steps of the Capitol, re-swore his oath to the Constitution, and was arrested for it. He is the first active duty commissioned officer to publicly denounce this administration's conduct. When a commissioned officer risks his career and freedom to sound the alarm, you don't get to look away. The pattern is clear: reckless budget cuts gutting military readiness, veterans being stripped of services they earned, and leadership that treats the armed forces as a political prop. Hegseth has no business running the Department of Defense, and the damage being done to our service members and veterans is real and ongoing. Major Watson's arrest should be front-page news and a wake-up call. Act on it.
